cnrobinson Posted January 3, 2006 Share Posted January 3, 2006 There is a wealth of experience on c.net but first you have to tell us (1) where abouts in the world you are located, and (2) a few details of the concertina in question.

jerryo Posted January 3, 2006 Author Share Posted January 3, 2006 I am in the Milwaukee area. As for the concertina, I'll have a look at it and see what I can decipher. I'll post back when I have that. Thanks. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Susanne Posted January 3, 2006 Share Posted January 3, 2006 A picture of it will probably help. I got help to find out what I have, thanks to my pictures. There are some people here who know a lot. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Chris Timson Posted January 4, 2006 Share Posted January 4, 2006 One thing you could try is look at my Concertina FAQ site and go to the section on Concertina Types. The photos and decriptions there should help you identify the basic type of concertina you have - there are several. Chris Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
